There is nothing better than a fresh start and a new wardrobe. This is one of the reasons why you should love the beginning of the school year. It’s a chance to revamp your wardrobe and try out new things, and you know what they say, “Dress well, test well.”

As we all know, back to school shopping can get pricey, but these are affordable trends that anyone can try out.

Dresses and sneakers

Pairing sneakers with a feminine dress is an interesting combo and is the perfect outfit for back to school weather. With this look it is easy to stay comfortable while still looking stylish this fall.

A huge current trend is “dad sneakers,” which are basically chunky or platform sneakers. These can help give your look the perfect touch of masculinity.

If you want to try out this look, but do not want to invest a ton into new sneakers, Target has great options under $30.

Bodysuits

For those mornings when you are looking for a no stress outfit that is easy to pair together, bodysuits are a go-to. At this point, you can find them just about anywhere. Pair a tighter fitting bodysuit with looser boyfriend jeans and you are out the door.

In this outfit you will not only be fashionable, but you will feel secure and comfortable all day. The only downside is that bodysuits can make using the bathroom a wee bit difficult.

Two-piece sets

I am all about two-piece sets for back to school. They are versatile and require zero thought when putting an outfit together. You can always style the top and bottoms separately to change up your look. Whether you prefer pants, skirts or shorts, there’s a set for that.
